PPRDJF, step by step
The framework for situational questions, letter by letter: what to ask yourself at every step.

Key takeaways
- Problem: what would happen if you did absolutely nothing?
- Perspectives: don't judge or assume; map who's directly and indirectly involved
- Responsibility: state your role, or identify one if none is given
- Decide: least harm, on ethical, legal and scientific grounds, with IF/THEN
- Justify every move; Future is optional

Exercise 1 of 5
Put in order
Put this answer's sentences in PPRDJF order.
A classmate who missed a week with the flu asks to copy your answers for an assignment due tomorrow.
- 1Sharing my answers would be academic dishonesty, but they're genuinely behind because they were sick.
- 2They're probably stressed and embarrassed to ask.
- 3I'd say no to copying, but offer to go through the concepts with them tonight.
- 4Next time, I'd check in sooner when a friend misses class.
- 5As a classmate, I want to help, but not in a way that puts us both at risk.
- 6That way they actually learn the material, and many professors accommodate illness.
